Spring has sprung, the river is rising, and when Luann
Dupree, the head of River Bend’s Historical Society,
vanishes into the night, everyone in town is convinced
she’s run off with her Internet Romeo. But her lifelong
friend, Sarah Biddle, is convinced Luann is the victim of
foul play. No one believes her—not even her husband, the
local sheriff, so she turns to Helen Evans for help.
As River Bend’s resident puzzle-solver, Helen’s tackled
many a local mystery before. So she agrees to help Sarah,
even though she’s not so sure herself that Luann is
really in trouble. But as the town’s flood waters slowly
recede, dead fish and muck aren’t the only things Helen
finds. She begins to uncover town secrets, false
identities…and the very real chance that Luann might not
be discovered alive…
